Make data exposed in Temporal UI easily targetable via JavaScript
Hello, I've been using Temporal in production for 3 year now.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
Right now, debugging Temporal workflows is a lot of copy/pasting RunIDs, Trace IDs or other internal IDs into a bunch of different UIs to find information.
Describe the solution you'd like
Instead of copy/pasting IDs everywhere, I would love to just be able to click on buttons that open the desired UI.
But since, every company has its own set of tools, it's not something that can be hard-coded in the Temporal UI. However, on the workflow detail page (/namespaces/default/workflows/xxx/yyy/history), surfacing important IDs in the HTML via a explicit id or class would make it very easy for folks to create userscripts (or Browser extensions even) to code this behavior themselves.
Data I think should be easy target-able via JavaScript DOM queries:
- Workflow ID
- Run ID
- Task Queue
- Workflow Type
- Workflow Input
- Workflow Result
- Memo and custom search attributes would be great, but they're hidden on the Metadata tab
Describe alternatives you've considered
Customization options on the Temporal UI directly but this seems out of scope for the UI.
Additional context
I also would love to have the Open Telemetry Trace ID also available on the UI. I'm not sure how many folks would be interested, but it has become my entrypoint to debug stuff.
